contents Let $X=G/H$ be a homogeneous space of a Lie group $G$. When the isotropy subgroup $H$ is non-compact, a discrete subgroup $Γ$ may fail to act properly discontinuously on $X$. In this article, we address the following question: in the setting where $G$ and $H$ are reductive Lie groups and $Γ\backslash X$ is a standard quotient, to what extent can one deform the discrete subgroup $Γ$ while preserving the proper discontinuity of the action on $X$? We provide several classification results, including conditions under which local rigidity holds for compact standard quotients $Γ\backslash X$, when a standard quotient can be deformed into a non-standard quotient, a characterization of the largest Zariski-closure of discontinuous groups under small deformations, and conditions under which Zariski-dense deformations occur.
